Look beyond “pet allowed” boxes, opt for places that really welcome dogs. Think no extra pet fees, no breed restrictions, and features like secure gardens or walking trails nearby.

PAWD Tip: Use Airbnb’s “pet-friendly” filter and check reviews from other dog parents to get the full picture.

They don’t need a suitcase, but a well-packed bag makes all the difference. Don’t forget:

• Collar with ID tag, lead, and harness

• Their daily bottle of PAWD DRINKS 💧

• Regular food, water bowl, and favourite treats

• Toys, a familiar blanket, or bed

• Poo bags and wipes for clean-ups on the go

Holidays can be exciting but keeping a sense of familiarity helps your dog feel calm. Feed them at the usual times, keep walks consistent, and build in daily enrichment like sniffy strolls or a puzzle toy.

You might be keen to tick off tourist spots, but for dogs, a slow sniff through new surroundings is heaven. Let them take their time, sniffing is their way of processing the world. Think of it as their version of sightseeing.

Seek out spots where dogs are truly part of the fun. Think:

• Dog-welcoming cafés or pubs

• Beaches or lakes with off-lead areas

• National Trust grounds or heritage walks

• Local pet shops or summer dog markets

PAWD Idea: Create your own staycation “day trip guide” based on reviews and dog travel blogs before you go.

Warm weather can be tough on dogs, especially when exploring somewhere new. Make it easier by:

• Walking early in the morning or at sunset

• Avoiding car travel during the hottest hours

• Freezing a PAWD DRINKS bottle for a hydrating pupsicle treat

Travel and routine changes can sometimes trigger tummy troubles. Stick to their usual food and keep their gut supported with PAWD WELLNESS, packed with natural ingredients for digestion and immune support.

New sights, smells, and sounds? It can be a little overwhelming. PAWD CALMING is designed for moments just like this. Use daily in the run-up to your trip and while you’re away to help your dog stay cool, calm, and collected.

Perfect for:

• Long car journeys

• Unfamiliar accommodation

• Unexpected noises like fireworks or thunder

Even if your Airbnb or cottage says “dog-friendly,” a little courtesy goes a long way. Bring a towel for muddy paws, avoid letting them on the furniture (unless told otherwise), and always let your host know if you’ll be popping out without your pup.
